it really is an interesting character, and I think I've only seen something like that once before. Accepted!

Was that in refrence to my character?

yes. There is only one instance where I've seen a character like that, and I'm not even sure if the series the character came from ever took off. Alex is accepted

The premise of this intrigues me greatly. While the lack of evident directional preparation sounds a bit scary actually, I'm gonna go ahead and ask if you're still open for takers.

I'm always open. the lack of direction is intentional, to allow more more diverse characters, and I like to think that it wold keep people on their toes, without having a sense of what may or may not happen.

That's very reassuring. Knowing you've left it that way with a clear intention is all I need. I'll have to ask this, because it's a rather cheesy matter, and I'm actually still on the fence about it, but is there a problem with using Majora's Mask? It's in the pool of three masks I'd pick from and I'd absolutely understand if anybody disliked this one being used as I'm unlikely to live up to the expectations of that mask. Regardless, I'll type out a CS tonight.

hmm. It certainly is an interesting mask, and as displayed in the game, it can have lingering effects on the wearer. I'll say yes, but due to the immense power of the mask, some things may have to be limited in order to not have an overpowered character.

Bart, Nina, John, Adamina, and Alex are all accepted, so please place your character sheets in the CS section.

Woah so that's not what I meant to say. So is Cassie not accepted? If so does that mean we can only play characters with masks?

She is accepted as well.

She is accepted as well.

Wonderful. Can't wait to play!

It's taking slightly longer than anticipated, I don't feel incredibly satisfied with the character I conceived and will have to rework it or come up with an entirely different one.

no worries, but I do want to to be known that I'm going to put the first post up some time today or tomorrow.

Totally forgot to put my guys in the character tab. Glad to see we're starting soon.

I am just entirely stuck on what sort of power the mask grants a pug... *facepalms with brick*

Makes more bestial? A Pyromanger Pug? It can be as ridiculous as you want it to be, and doesn't need to make sense.

Pyromaniacal...that'd be a weird fit with the backstory I've given 'em. I think I'll choose something very similar.

I'm just gonna back away from this, I can't come up with a character to wear the mask I came up with.

If I may, can I use the mask that you came up with?

Name: Charlotte Pine Age: 17 Gender: Female Appearance Mask Masked appearance: Wearing the mask changes her physical appearance, but not in a way that changes her features, shape or hair color. Instead, it lets her appear roughly five to ten years older, like a person in their mid-twenties. This is in fact a precise depiction of the future Charlotte. Masked Abilities: While masked up, Charlie can see unhindered, disregarding both darkness and other non-solid sight-impeding substances like smoke or fire. Furthermore, the mask is constantly emitting smoke with every breath she takes. This smoke is usually odorless, but this may change during surges of emotion - for example, when agitated and furious, it may have a taste of gasoline, when holding a deep grudge it's similar to smoke of a fire and cause coughing. The amount of smoke emitted can be controled to an extend. If intentionally cranked up, the smoke can fill small and medium sized rooms reasonably fast, blocking sight for everyone but Charlie. This emission can only be stopped entirely by removing the mask. The glass is mirrored but when using the mask to see through smoke or darkness, it may glow in a bright blue tone. Wearing the mask enables Charlie to materialize three different items out of thin air: A MP-443 Grach, a semi automatic 9mm russian firearm with a single, fully loaded magazine containing 17 bullets. The weapon can freely be retrieved from any place that is not within the field of view of another person - this means pockets work just as well as simply reaching around a corner, below a table, behind her back. When empty, she needs to either find physically existing ammunition in her environment, or throw the magazine/entire weapon away and not summon it within the next 12 hours. The weapon disappears after discaring it as soon as nobody is looking directly at it - not letting it out of ones eyes is a valid method to prevent Charlie from retrieving it. A "Kizlyar Condor-1" combat knife that is always in its sheath which is always strapped around her hip, the location of the sheath being behind her back and underneath her clothes. It disappears under the same circumstances as the pistol, but there can be two copies of this item at any given time. A seemingly endless supply of standard issue smoke grenades of different smoke colors. She can produce these from any pocket or from underneath any piece of clothing as if it had been there previously. Empty smoke grenade shells don't disappear until 12 hours after depleting their load, at which point the same rules apply as for the pistol or knife. Lastly, the mask improves her perception, speeds up her reaction time and supplies her with the bodily strength her words often falsely advertise, though all of this well within the limits of a normal human being. It enables her to beat the tar out of an average joe if necessary, but a trained fighter will likely pose a serious problem, an athlete will outrun her and so on. Personality: Charlie is what you'd expect from a teenager. She's nosy, loud and doesn't shy away from confrontation, though her muscles do not support the claims her tongue often makes. She's not strong physically, a typical "dog that barks, but has no bite". She is often moody and doesn't fit into groups of people, as she always finds some kind of reason to provoke a quarrel, which eventually leads to the group expelling her. There aren't any people in her life she'd call true friends, only a number of superficial acquaintances, though she doesn't mind doing her own thing. Logically, she doesn't work well in teams but is generally bearable unless provoked. She's not quite as simple-minded as her loud demeanor implies, but that's one of the things she likes to keep secret from society, as being underestimated is generally the better of two evils in her opinion. Masked personality: When wearing the mask, her personality doesn't change much. The only noticeable deviation is the fact that her ego and self-confidence are greatly amplified when wearing the mask. In this state, she seems to think of herself as untouchable, invincible - greatly overestimating herself, ignorant to her limits. This also leads to situations where she acts thoughtlessly on a whim, because right this second she feels like doing something irresponsible that may end up being beneficial. She's living a power phantasy when wearing the mask, and acts like it - which can be immensely more stressful to others than her unmasked personality. Bio: Charlie's parents died in a plane crash when she was three years old, so she never really knew them. The first thing she remembers is living with her uncle, who is just as much of a scallywag as she is. Despite becoming her guardian after the parents passed away, he never bothered too much with her, and instead left her a lot more personal space than she would have needed to become a decent human being. That, and the wonders of puberty turned Charlie into the rebellious wastrel she is today. Nothing breathtakingly amazing happened in her life until that grandpa she never really liked passed away. During the excruciatingly boring mourning ceremony at his house, she stole away and hid in the attic, where she found something looking like a gas mask. Intrigued by the odd thing, she stole it and took it home only to later find out that something was definitely wrong with the thing - though it scared her at first, it began to feel very good. After what can only be described as a crusade of revenge against people who bullied her in school (broken bones only, no fatal casualties) nobody suspected the girl to be the masked culprit and she realized the potential of the mask - she could do anything she wants, nobody would recognize her behind the mirrorded glass or with the older looking body, and nobody could pursue her in the trail of smoke that followed in her wake. She achieved several things thus far, from small-scale theft to beating up a gang of criminals to appearing all over the incompetent media, and while a straight forward bank robbery has not happened yet, it definitely came into consideration lately. ___________________________________________________________________ As already mentioned, I didn't feel like my Majora's Mask thing could live up to the name, so I decided against using it and instead created something of my own entirely. Taking...

It can be as ridiculous as you want it to be, and doesn't need to make sense.

...literally, as is probably obvious!
